| Abstract/Contents: | Briefly discusses tests of the "17-million pound field tray that holds the natural grass playing surface for [the Arizona Cardinals home stadium]." States that the tests were "initial mechanization back checks which included some alignment verification." States that "the unique rollout natural-grass playing field is constructed in a single tray measuring 234 feet wide and 403 feet long. It is the first completely retractable field in the United States and will be positioned inside the stadium on game days to offer the preferred natural-grass playing surface for football. It will remain outside the stadium for the remaining 350+ days of the year to receive sunlight and watering." |
